What dreams are like for me:
In most dreams I have I lack a sense of self awareness. I am not in a dream right now because I can realize that I am here that for some people they would call the opposite of delirium.
In my dreams it is like delirium.
Not fully aware of where I am or what I am doing.
But I can experience dreams in a multitude of environments and places that don't exist in the real world. Only my experience of them is like a four year old and not much light exists in the dreams but a dark room.
It was interesting what I did last night was some kind of carnival instead a mall. I did stuff with people and it was like a forest and circus and I went other places in rooms and buildings.
It's like this and many other ways but never open spaces with sky. It's dark and I have the mind of a four year old.

How this relates to IQ
What the brain does is creates a simulation of the world so we can navigate it. It does so by folding itself into loops. This is how memory can be created. So when we dream we are only interacting with pieces of recombining memories.
This means we have to take into consideration what it is we are paying attention to. If we only have interaction with ourselves in dreams then it matters what we can control.
I believe that the control mechanism is the same as the attention mechanism. So the more we have a top down attention the more control we have to manipulate our memories and thinking processes.
A four year old cannot do much because both bottom up perception (details) and top down attention (control) are not complex enough to handle many things at the same time.
My dreams seem to be connected to many places not existing in real life but I can move there. In reality I can move in that space also with constraints.
It is the fact that the brain interacting with itself that creates dreams and our navigation of reality that gave me the idea I have now.

The idea.
If I connect to myself I can pay attention to more than one thing at the same time. Then I can move it in my mind. The more I can move then the more I can think about.
In perception we can see and hear millions of signals. But usually can only contend with four thoughts at the same time. That is the top of the frontal lobes each has two thoughts in the left and right hemisphere. The brain works this way because we have two hands.
We can remember more than Four things at once but to put them together we need top down attention, removing most of the sensory signals.
I believe that attention can be increased and is why we grow past four year old thinking. All that needs to be done is to try connecting to oneself more. We interact with ourselves in dreams but we can also consciously control how aware we are so can develop a higher awareness.
